Flexible and reliable device for use with all ABB flame detectors.

The Flame Analysis Unit (FAU810) is the latest addition to ABB’s range of cutting edge flame analysis equipment.

The FAU810 has been designed from the ground up to maximise flexibility, availability and reliability.

It takes full advantage of the latest technology available, keeping the cost of flue gas analysis as low as possible while maintaining ABB’s excellent reputation as the most reliable instrument in the industry.

Easy to install and configure, the FAU810 is simple to operate and features a redundant Profi bus DP-V1 or standard Modbus interface for easy and secure data exchange and adjustment.

Adjustments. You can connect any type of ABB flame sensing device to the FAU810.

This makes the FAU810 the standard module for all ABB flame scanner applications and the preferred solution for retrofitting existing equipment.

It determines whether the current signal value is within the functionally defined programmed limits.

The FAU810 can define a variety of limit values to address any situation that may arise in a utility or industrial boiler.

Collecting Flame Detector Signal Values

The FAU810 analyses the signal generated by the flame detector.

Calculate signal quality

The FAU810 measures the signal quality to show changes in the burner flame.

The quality value acts as a barometer, predicting when the burner is likely to go out. This helps you to anticipate changes and problems.

Continuous fault detection

The instrument automatically monitors the flame detector and the www.abb-drive.com electronics of the FAU810 unit to detect system problems or malfunctions.

Signalling an Unsafe Condition

A no flame condition occurs when the FAU810 logic determines that an unsafe condition exists.

Remote Monitoring

Extended setup, parameter archiving, group viewing, advanced diagnostics including flame raw data, real-time and historical trending for up to 254 networked scanning heads.

Networking with the DTM is possible via the PC-based software package Flame ExplorerTM or via any Profi Bus DP-V1 master remote control.

FAU810 Specifications

Each flame analysis unit consists of two independent channels. Each channel receives and processes one flame detector signal. The two detectors can be any combination of the following designs:

– SF810 Flame Scanning Head

– All DFS flame scanning heads

– Flame Rod (Ion Flame Monitoring)

Each detector can be independently configured via the FAU810 pushbutton and display, the Flame Explorer engineering tool or Profibus.

The FAU810 can be powered by a single or redundant 24 VDC power supply (+/- 20%).

The FAU810 has a built-in diode auction for power isolation.

Two digital input channels are available for remote parameter switching. One digital input per sensor.

(Example: Dedicated flame detector parameters can be customised to monitor coal or oil burning)

The FAU810 can be upgraded in the field based on official releases of new product features through a proprietary firmware download tool.
